5. Wait, why would publishing the name of a gun owner PROMOTE a burglary?

Makes no sense. I can see if a neighbor NOT listed was burgled. Your post isn't clear on that. But the fact remains, homes get burglarized all the time. It stands to reason a home, some home, any home, was going to be burglarized in White Plains anyway. It is convenient to link it to "the list," but hardly conclusive of anything.
